High quality options for streaming to PS3

| I just waned to mention that I tried the described method with another movie and had perfect audio sync. I will try a few more and see how it goes. The movie I tested had TONS of telecine-related issues and they were 100% corrected. |

There is another type of sync issue that I have encountered that is correctable. It happens when there are a few blank frames at the beginning of the film. Most demuxers report a 0ms delay but the audio ends up out of sync by a consistent amount of time throughout the movie. The blank frame problem can be corrected by using DGIndex to demux and a little trick from the DGIndex author. Once you have the correct VOB files queued up, hit the ">" button a few times to skip a few I-frames. Then hit the "[" button to change the start position. Now demux the streams, use pulldown to correct the flags, and remux as usual. |
| Thanks for the work on this. I have used it successfully on a couple of movies. I had a problem with one movie "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" Seems to output a good VOB file. Plays on PC with no problems 1280x720 with good AC3 sync. PS3 says it is corrupted. I transfer it using Twonky. Haven't tried a memory card or disc. The file is 5 GB. Too big for DVD. Any help? Know of any tools to check MPEG2 integrity to see if it will be acceptable to PS3? Thanks again! Quote:

Also, you might try encoding just one chapter by adding "-chapter 3-3" as a test. The PS3 might just be hung up on something in the beginning of the file. I use Gspot and MediaInfo to take a look at files but there is no real indication for what the PS3 might consider bad. The corrupted message on the PS3 has never happened to me on a Mencoder created VOB file. |
| The mencoder command is: "c:\Documents and Settings\jbaker\Desktop\MPlayer-1.0rc2\mencoder.exe" dvd://1 -dvd-device "D:\VIDEO_TS" -alang en -channels 6 -oac copy -vf filmdint,hqdn3d,scale=1280:-2 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vqscale=2:vbitrate=8000: autoaspect:keyint=10 -of mpeg -ofps 24000/1001 -mpegopts format=dvd:tsaf:vframerate=24000/1001:vbuf_size=400 -o C:\Charlie.vob I did see afterwards that you have started using a different scaling option. I wouldn't think that it is the problem though. I have tried this particular command on "Star Wars", "Close Encounters", "Aladdin"... no issues. Just change the Input files and output files. Any ideas? |
| Quote:
The scaler option is really just a personal preference. The one I use is slower but better at removing jagged diagonal lines in the upscale. I still think it is just something in the beginning of the file. Did you try encoding a single chapter (other than chapter 1)? |
| Thanks for all the hard work. I was shaking my head in frustration with the appearance of some DVDs on the PS3 until I came across your post. Just wanted to add a couple audio related things I noticed while using your two approaches. As far as audio drift with the tsmuxer/pulldown/imagompeg-muxer approach, I noticed two cases that seem to hold (at least in the few DVDs I've tried so far). If during the tsmuxer stage, you get the message "Warning! Source stream contains irregular pulldown marks" in the error box, then you will have audio drift and must use the mencoder approach. If you don't get this message, however, everything seems to work great. Another thing that wasn't mentioned specifically here is that I found some VOBs have no sound when played on the PS3 even though they work fine on the PC, etc. The one instance where this happened, I noticed in tsmuxer that the "Delay (in ms)" field (when you click on an AC3/etc. audio stream) was non-zero. Of the intro and 5 episode VOBs I split out of the offending DVD using DVD Shrink, the one with zero delay played fine, but all the others with varying (-) 20-80 ms delays had no sound. I believe they were negative, but can't remember for sure (I already deleted the VOBs). In any case, I was able to correct this by simply demuxing with tsmuxer, then remuxing with imagompeg-muxer (i.e. no pulldown removal or anything else). The de/remuxed file played fine with sound. Anyway, just thought these two things might help others... |
| I did rip it to the hard drive too. This was one that I ran from a "ripped" copy of the dvd. I will check the chapters and see if I can get a working subset of the whole movie. Thanks Wish this were easier! |

For spicyvelveetas' no-sound problem, I think your approach of demux with tsMuxer and then mux with Imagompeg-muxer is worth a try. I believe Imagompeg is adding the necessary audio delay setting in the header for the PS3. If the problem could be detected prior to encoding then "-audio-delay" could be added to the Mencoder command to set the header correctly. Maybe someone else knows a good way to detect the audio delay problem on the DVD. The only way I can think of is to use DGIndex to extract just the audio from the first VOB file and look at the file name. However, this requires you to know which VTS set is the correct title and I have found instances where DGIndex reports 0ms delay but there was actually a problem. Another solution that comes to mind is to use the "-ss" option in Mencoder to skip the first second or more to get arround the problem. I think this could be used on an already encoded file like this: Quote:

| I got this movie to work last night. Thanks for the help. The chapters didn't really give me much help, but as I was watching I saw a scr error. I then tried the noskip option. This seems to have worked. Thanks again. I saw that 2.40 firmware is out and the noise reduction options, previously only for DVD, are now available for HDD video. I wonder if this means they are going to use the DVD video processing and pulldown will be better for our HDD videos?!? No mention of it but it may not be savvy to admit the problem. Quote:

I installed the 2.40 firmware on the PS3 before they pulled it. Guess I am lucky that it didn't brick my unit. Unfortunately, frame judder is even worse with the new firmware. I test each new firmware as it comes out and will certainly report back if Sony ever fix the problem. |
| That's too bad. It sounded somewhat promising. I didn't load 2.40. I hope it gets fixed and reloaded. The features sound good (aside from the judder). BTW, have you upgraded you HDD to store more movies or are you only NAS? I like the local option for most things. It seems a bit more responsive. I'd like to add a whopping external drive, but the thing has to be fat32 right, hence no big mpegs. Thanks again. I'll keep checking back here to see if the firmware ever fixes the judder Quote:

| With each new version of the PS3 firmware I retest the frame judder problem on unaltered DVD content that uses soft telecine. As of PS3 firmware 2.41, the frame judder problem seems to be eliminated or reduced to almost none. This means that Vob passthrough in DVDFab can be used to generate files for the PS3. I've confirmed this using my test clips and a couple of recent movies. I'd like to see others verify my findings. |
